00:00Chase Brown, he's been a vital part of the Bengals offense that Joe Burrow seemingly

00:08called embarrassing.

00:0927 and a half receiving yards, yards through the air for Chase Brown over-under.

00:16I've been betting this for weeks now, and it keeps hitting every single week.

00:20It has hit every week since week nine, except last week in week 15, boo, against the Tennessee

00:25Titans.

00:26It's because the Tennessee Titans didn't have to, you know, didn't really push them

00:30at all.

00:31Now, granted, you could be in a similar situation with Cleveland, so it was a little bit more

00:34tenuous.

00:35However, the health of Tee Higgins, I think, opens things up here a little bit more for

00:38Chase Brown.

00:39It's not a huge number.

00:40And Joe Burrow, we talked about how good Joe Burrow's been.

00:43He has been on a stretch run here where he has been absolutely incredible.

00:47Six straight games with 250 or more passing yards, three passing touchdowns.

00:51I think he continues to throw the ball regardless.

00:54And the fact that that defense is just not good, maybe they do give up some points here

00:58to DTR and the Cleveland Browns.

00:59And at the end of the day, we can get this over on 27 and a half for Chase Brown also.

01:03I love what Chase Brown's been able to do.

01:05I think this backfield is going to be his going forward.

01:07So the good news is, you're going to sign Jamar Chase, do a huge contract, okay.

01:12You're going to have Chase Brown next year, okay.

01:14Tee Higgins is going to walk, so you have to fill that secondary wide receiver spot.

01:17So right now, you're looking at a piece here with the Cincinnati Bengals where you have

01:22to retool the defense and figure out what's going on in that secondary because whatever

01:26you got going on right now, it just has not worked all season.

01:29All right.

01:30The Los Angeles Rams are in Joe's neck of the woods.

01:34I understand a few guys may or may not be staying in Joe's basement.

01:36Pupu Nakua, 90 and a half receiving yards over or under.

01:41You mentioned about the Rams as something to play for.

01:45Matthew Stafford, it's going to be cold.

01:46It's going to be cold out here in Jersey and in New York.

01:49But Nakua, over 90 and a half receiving yards.

01:52What do you think?

01:53Over or under?

01:54I think this number was too big and a lot of people agreed with me because it was bet

01:59and now it's at 86 and a half.

02:01So it's been lowered a little bit along with the expectations.

02:04Now 86 and a half I think is a much better number to be working with than the 90 and

02:08a half.

02:09It gives us a little bit more leeway.

02:11If we do get that disappointing Matt Stafford game, again, the up and down roller coaster

02:16of Stafford has been a lot this year.

02:18He is outside.

02:19It is cold.

02:20All of these things, but they have something to play for and the Rams can make the playoffs

02:23and Sean McVay yet again doing a tremendous job of keeping this team together and focused

02:29despite all the injuries and all the issues.

02:31Guess what?

02:32The Rams are still relevant and Sean McVay is one of the best coaches in the league and

02:35he keeps proving it time and time again.

02:38And then the last one that we're going to talk about is James Cook because James Cook,

02:42we discussed already the Patriots struggle against the run, struggle to tackle.

02:46This should be a game that the Buffalo Bills theoretically have in control.

02:49And if you have control of the game, you're going to run out the clock.

02:51So maybe you get some Ray Davis in there too.

02:54But James Cook, 64 and a half.

02:56To me, this is an over.

02:57I know he is up and down.

02:59I know the game log can be smashed or pass.

03:01I get it.

03:02But this week I think it's a James Cook game and I think you could even be in a situation

03:07where you could ladder this up to 100 and probably still get it.

03:10I think it's in that range.

03:12We don't get them very often, but it's that perfect storm.

03:14So cold weather coming in, certainly going to have an effect on a lot of these games.

03:18And Matt, when you start looking ahead for the Buffalo Bills, it seems like the Buffalo

03:21Bills are going to be coasting into the playoffs.

03:23Do you think that's a good thing or is it better to continue to get challenged like

03:27some other of these teams are?

03:28That's a big question that I have.
